Year 4 from our class hung out with the rest of the year 4s from 4/5C in the library and computer room. There was maths, English and library research before having to go back to their classrooms. Today the year 4s from 3/4T and 4/5C visited the Life Education van together. They learnt lots from the lovely teacher in there and also had a visit from Healthy Harold who I heard was telling jokes!
The afternoons of Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday saw us listen to some great multicultural public speaking competition speeches. We took turns being the time-keeper and ringing the bell to let everyone know when the speakers were at 2 minutes and then 3 minutes. After each speech we listened to Mrs Taylor give everyone who gave a speech two stars and a wish. That just means that everyone got feedback from me about two areas that they had done well in and one area that they could look at improving for next time. It meant everyone learnt a great deal about what is needed in a good speech and why.
Tomorrow will be the first training of the season for winter PSSA. The rain and mother's day breakfast meant that we haven't actually had a training session for any of the PSSA teams. I know that I'm looking forward to running through some skills and drills with the AFL PSSA teams tomorrow morning!
Next week we'll be looking forward to being back into our normal routine. Except for Monday, where all of stage 2 classes will be involved in a morning and middle session science experiment extravaganza! How exciting! I can't wait to look at how matter changes!
